Praise for the First Edition: "The strongest aspect of this text is the very large number of worked boundary value problem examples." e" SIAM "This is a useful introductory text on PDEs for advanced undergraduate / beginning graduate students of applied mathematics, physics, or engineering sciences. e a nice introductory text which certainly is of great use in preparing and delivering courses." e" Zentralblatt MATH "Readers new to the subject will find Colemane(tm)s appendix cataloguing important partial differential equations in their natural surroundings quite useful. e Colemane(tm)s more explicit, extended style would probably allow its use as an advanced graduate or reference text for UK engineers or physicists." e" Times Higher Education "The book presents very useful material and can be used as a basic text for self-study of PDEs." e" EMS Newsletter "Each chapter is introduced by a e~preludee(tm) that describes its content and gives historical background.

Edition Description
Revised edition,New Edition
Synopsis
An Introduction to Partial Differential Equations with MATLAB(R), Second Edition illustrates the usefulness of PDEs through numerous applications and helps students appreciate the beauty of the underlying mathematics. Updated throughout, this second edition of a bestseller shows students how PDEs can model diverse problems, including the flow of heat, the propagation of sound waves, the spread of algae along the ocean's surface, the fluctuation in the price of a stock option, and the quantum mechanical behavior of a hydrogen atom. Suitable for a two-semester introduction to PDEs and Fourier series for mathematics, physics, and engineering students, the text teaches the equations based on method of solution. It provides both physical and mathematical motivation as much as possible. The author treats problems in one spatial dimension before dealing with those in higher dimensions. He covers PDEs on bounded domains and then on unbounded domains, introducing students to Fourier series early on in the text. Each chapter's prelude explains what and why material is to be covered and considers the material in a historical setting. The text also contains many exercises, including standard ones and graphical problems using MATLAB. While the book can be used without MATLAB, instructors and students are encouraged to take advantage of MATLAB's excellent graphics capabilities. The MATLAB code used to generate the tables and figures is available in an appendix and on the author's website., An Introduction to Partial Differential Equations with MATLAB®, Second Edition illustrates the usefulness of PDEs through numerous applications and helps students appreciate the beauty of the underlying mathematics.
